Instruments: Piano
When I was six I decided that I wanted to play the piano. Since I was very young, I always enjoyed listening to my mother play Classical Music, that was the moment when I developed my passion for playing the piano. I come from a very musical and artistic family. I am most passionate about Classical Music, and have always wanted to share my passion to others. My mother has not only been the root of my inspiration but also always been my instructor. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin
I had the opportunity to experience a wide range of styles as a soloist and as a member of many bands and ensembles: Classical, American Folk, mariachi, boleros, tangos--playing in many venues and contrasting scenarios around the U.S.A and foreing countries such as Mxico and Argentina. Istarted teaching private students piano,violin, guitar and composition since 2008; In 2013, in California, I founded a music program, providing musical education specially to underdeserved students.

Instruments: Piano
I try to make sure students can progress at their own pace based on their own skill level and experience with the instrument. I try to instill diligence patience and not being too hard on yourself as the top priorities. I want student and teacher interactions to be casual enjoyable and fun but at the same time serious with regards to the composer's intentions in the music. Like watering a flower it doesn't happen overnight the flower takes time to grow same with a piano student there needs to be incremental growth not overnight success. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums
I am the students greatest motivator. I love to bring out the best in all of my students and help them discover things about their musical capacities that they never have before. I am highly enthusiastic and believe that every one learns at their own pace. Its never about how quickly you learn something, but about how well you learn it, even if it takes time. I like to acknowledge the students progress and their accomplishments because I believe it helps the student to have the desire to keep learning and progressing. Read More

I first started teaching kids privately about 4 years ago in their home and I started off with just basic stuff like note reading and pop music but as time passed by I came up with a teaching method that I am pretty confident in. I also worked at a tutoring center teaching guitar and piano to the kids focusing on more rock styles of playing. So my students were learning music from their favorite bands and what they wanted to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
Nothing makes me happier than seeing a student develop the same passion for music that I have. It is very important to me that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting goals at each lesson, by a deadline, etc. Acknowledging accomplisments helps fuel a students desire to progress and makes them eager to learn more. Finding what inspires the student is the best possible way to tailor each lesson to their wants and needs. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I encourage progress over awards. It is vital that the singer be able to rely on their fundamental and progress at their own pace to be able to build healthy habits that will last for a lifetime of singing. I try to understand the goals and desires for all students to be able to help them reach that goal in a healthy progression. I am very challenging but singing if supposed to always be fun as well or there is no use in doing it every day. Read More
Instruments: Drums
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My biggest tip is SLOW DOWN! if you can’t play the pattern/groove correctly up to speed then you need to lower the tempo and start at a tempo that feels comfortable to you. No matter how advanced a piece of music is, you can always lower the tempo and practice bringing it up until you are up to the tempo of the song. Also another tip ALWAYS practice to a metronome, it doesn’t matter which exercise you’re doing, you have to make sure that you are playing in time. As a drummer our number one job is to be in time.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Personally as a drummer myself I feel you should communicate with your child first if they even want to take lessons. Music is universal and can definitely be a hobby, but if you are willing to pay to see them progress I would hope that they have a good mindset about it. Especially if the student is eager to learn this will make him/her start to progress even more quickly. A student that just plain isn’t interested will not see as much progress as a student that is clearly engaged and has an itch to play.
When will I start to see results?
I feel if your student is starting as ground zero you will immediately see results after the first lesson. The basic “Money Beat” is a drum beat that really is the basis for everything on drums. Once the student starts to develop an understanding and is familiar playing the “Money Beat” you will see progress start to sky rocket. With this beat under your belt you will immediately be able to play along to songs by some of the biggest artists in the music industry. With enough patience and determination results will be further from what you could have ever expected.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Both of my Uncles grew up playing drums in the 1980s and ever since I was born in 1997 I was told specifically by them that I would be able to play drums like them. I had always been banging on my Uncle’s drums on weekends until I was 10 years old I got my first drum set. Ever since then I have been playing almost everyday and I still enjoy every second of it. Since graduating high school I realized I needed to get more serious about music and moved to Hollywood to study at Musicians Institute and later receive an associate’s degree.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genre of music is Rock and Roll. Ever since I was a kid my uncle’s have always been showing me new rock bands from the 1980s that I had never heard of and to me it was the best thing I had ever heard. I immedietly grew biased to rock music as a child until I started to develop my craft and grow a love for all styles of music. I definitely am a Rock guy at heart, but I am more than experienced enough to teach all styles of music. Since moving to LA and going to college I have learned more about music than I would have ever thought.
